An iconic decorative piece of 1970s Italian design, perfect for a Boho Chic or Organic Modern ambiance: an elegant swan sculpted from the most prized marble in the Rome region. Prestigious Material and Renowned Provenance The sculpture is carved from a single piece of Tivoli Travertine (Travertino di Tivoli), the historic and noble material used to build legendary monuments, such as the Colosseum. Made in Italy: The authentic label "SELEZIONE TRAVERTINO DI TIVOLI MADE IN ITALY" guarantees the origin and quality of this Italian marble. Design and Attribution of the Workshop Its clean, minimalist, and zoomorphic design is characteristic of the Italian Mid-Century Modern movement, beloved by interior designers. This type of travertine sculpture, depicting stylized animals, is strongly attributed to the renowned Florentine workshop Fratelli Mannelli (F.lli Mannelli), which popularized these organic luxury objects in the 1970s, sometimes in collaboration with designers like Enzo Mari. It is a work that embodies the legacy of high-quality Italian craftsmanship. The raw, porous texture of the travertine, with its warm, light hues, lends a natural and sophisticated touch. The swan symbolizes grace and elegance, making it an ideal piece to add a chic and timeless focal point to a bookcase, console table, or coffee table.
